happy pride to people for whom sexuality is fluid, genderâs ineffable, people who exist in in-betweens and not-quites and beyonds. people with no labels, changing labels, people who have settled into âqueerâ because they like it or because itâs the closest thing to true. people who arenât sure if they were born this way. questioning people. people who have given up seeking a niche and are comfortable with floating. float on, babes.
also happy pride remember that:
cishet was coined to mean cisgender heteroromantic heterosexual
aces canât be cishet, as they are asexual
aros canât be cishet, because they are aromantic
aces and aros deserve to be loved, accepted, and understood
aces and aros donât deserve the nasty things aphobes say they deserve
troll blogs love demonising ace and aro people by pretending to be one and yâall fall for it every god damn time
aces and aros arenât confused, incomplete, or broken
aces and aros arenât cringy
feel free to add onto this if you want
it doesnt matter what you think if we should or shouldnât be in because we have been in this comunity for a long time longer than you finding out about it.
cishet is literally a term created by trans straight people to point out the differences between us and cishets and misusing our terminology to mean ace/aro people to further ur exclusionary agenda is disgusting
Hope all my trans siblings and friends have a great pride month this year!!
Shout out to all the queer people out there.
The ones who are bold and loud, the ones who are quiet about it.
Those who canât quite put a finger on anything more specific than queer.
Anyone whoâs experimenting with queer as an identity.
I see you and I hope you all get the respect you deserve.
god i love queer people
Something I tossed together quickly for those of us whoâve been told weâre âacceptably queerâ for our other identities while being told that an important part of our queer identity is not queer enough on itâs own.
[Images: The ace and aro flags, each with text on the middle lines reading âNot queer despite being [ace/aro] / Queer because Iâm [ace/aro].]
if youâre gay, youâre doing GREAT and i will die for you
if youâre a lesbian, youâre doing AMAZING and i will kill for you
if youâre bisexual, youâre doing SPECTACULARLY and i will fight for you
if youâre pansexual, youâre doing WONDERFULLY and i will guide you on your journey
if youâre transgender, youâre doing GLORIOUSLY and i will climb a mountain for you
if youâre asexual or aromantic, youâre doing INCREDIBLY and i will walk through fire for you
if youâre nonbinary, youâre doing BEAUTIFULLY and i will defend your honour
if youâre queer or questioning, youâre doing EXCEPTIONALLY and i will protect you
Idk when tru///meds are going to realize that root causes and symptoms are different.
Autism is the root cause of someone being autistic. Depression is the root cause of someone being depressed. A broken bone is the root cause of a broken arm.
Dysphoria is a symptom of being transgender. Feelings of emptiness are a symptom of depression. Sensory overload is a symptom of autism. Overwhelming pain is symptom of a broken arm.
You donât have to have dysphoria to be trans. You donât have to feel empty to be depressed. There are other symptoms. You donât have to have sensory overload to be autistic. You donât have to have overwhelming pain to have a broken arm.
Dysphoria is a symptom not a root cause!!
âThen what do you need to be trans? What is the root cause of being trans?â
Well, itâs the disconnect babey! As long as you donât feel like your gender identity fits your ASAB! The root cause of being trans is the disconnect. And for some, that disconnect causes dysphoria. But for others their body feels fine, itâs the labels that donât fit.
TRUSCUM/TRANSMEDS, TERFS: DONT YOU DARE TOUCH THIS POST!!!!
Reblogging again to accompany other recent posts
Queer is the label we used when we werenât sure. Queer is the label we used when we were sure no other label would do. Queer is a gender that is my own and only my own. Queer is a sexuality that defies definition.Â
Queer is the label which became genderqueer, and from which non-binary and genderfluid sprung. Queer is the label which is the un-box, in which everyone who is not cishet (including ace people!!) fits. Queer is community.
Queer is activist. Queer is in the streets screaming âweâre here, weâre queer, get used to it!â Queer is not ashamed.
Queer was ours from the beginning. Queer was ours a century ago. Queer was used against us, and we said âfuck you,â and we took it BACK. Queer is butches and bears with bats, protecting our community.
Queer is blue-collar. Queer is working-class. Queer is poor. Queer is people who canât afford to sit out Stonewall quietly and then go fight for marriage equality when the tax bills come due. Queer is a distinct identity, and queer is the un-box.
Queer makes TERFs and exclusionists angry, because it doesnât let them define people by gold stars and terms like 'SGAâ that come from conversion therapy. Queer doesnât give a shit about historical revision to exclude members of the community who have always been here, because queer has always been here and always will be.
Queer is the life raft onto which we climb. Queer is community. Queer is important, and people will have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Iâve been queer for thirty years. My community is queer, and it is opt-in.
If you tag my fucking posts âq slurâ or any variant thereof I will immediately fucking block you. Donât fucking do it. If you feel obligated to tag my posts âq slur,â donât interact with them. My identity is not a bad word and does not require censoring.
Queer positivity post: *exists*
Someone (thereâs always someone): um ok but you know not everyone has to reclaim the word queer? Some people donât want to identify as queer and thatâs ok! I just think itâs really insensitive how youâre not considering how your post could be upsetting to all the people who donât identify as queer have you considered just shutting up about your identity forever?

I want to make a a separate post to reiterate that the âOnly being same-gender attracted or trans makes you LGBTâ line is biphobic. Straight up.
Iâve talked before about how this implies that biphobia as a form of oppression distinct from homophobia does not exist or at the very least does not matter, but more than that it explicitly means that certain bisexual people do not belong in the community at all. There are more than two genders and bisexual people can be attracted to any two or more genders, meaning that people can very well be bisexual and not experience same-gender attraction.
Members of the sga-and-trans-only crowd either do not believe that such bisexual people exist or are perfectly okay with shutting them out of the community entirely.
the term âcishetâ is so frustrating cause in theory, it should accurately describe non-queer people and provide us with a short, easy term to use when discussing them, but in reality, itâs got the really insidious implication that aros and aces are included in that term. even if the op isnât openly, blatantly aphobic, theyâre frequently âneutralâ on the subject and follow aphobes and reblog memes about how aces and aros are cringey or trying to be special snowflakes. iâve seen the term âcishetâ used by someone who supports aces and aros maybe twice on this site, and itâs absurd because it should be used to describe people who are actually cishet, not people who disagree with you online.
Thatâs what it used to be. It was a trans specific term actually to describe a specific subset of our oppressors and the interaction/combination of Cis and Straight privilege.
âAce discourseâ absolutely butchered the term, got cis people to seriously misuse it and turned it into an aphobic dog whistle and Iâm never gonna stop being angry about it
Honestly it doesnt even matter if bi people experience same gender attraction. Im tired of framing it that way. A lot of nonbinary bis dont. Some cis bis into nb people dont. Weâre marginalized because weâre attracted to more than one gender. Our potential same gender attraction can make us have a sense of solidarity with gay people, but it isnt what makes us queer or what makes us bi, and its time everyone remembered that
I swear to god I will never understand
This strict linearly, binary, static view of gender dysphoria/euphoria
That shit can get complicated
Sometimes my dysphoria around one thing/set of things fluctuates between âeffectively non existenceâ and âomg can not deal with thisâ in the space of 10 minutes or less
Sometimes my euphoria around a particular thing only turns on in specific situations but not in others
Sometimes things that seemingly âshouldnâtâ alleviate my dysphoria (like often strongly gendered things) totally do
Sometimes things that trigger my dysphoria actually fit better with the way I personally view and relate to myself/my gender
Stuff that alleviates my dysphoria doesnât always raise my euphoria and stuff that raises my euphoria doesnât always alleviate my dysphoria
Sometimes my euphoria and dysphoria are triggered by the exact same thing... at the same time....
Shit is complicated
